I'm Finally Over You

The first time I saw you
I remember it all so clear
It was the first time I felt love
And the first I felt real fear
I wanted to let you know how I felt
But I was to scared to tell
So I backed out every chance I had
And put my mind through h***
Finally everything worked out, I told you how I felt
Despite my fears when you said yes, you made my heart melt
I remember holding you in the theatre as we watched the world end
Kissing you goodnight and praying it would never end
But girl, you took my heart and you tore it apart
Almost went crazy thinking what do I do
Then I got over it and realized I don't need you
I loved you, but you tore me up inside
I cherished you, and I can't believe how much I cried
Took me a long time to realize what I do
I need food, I need water, I need love
But girl, I don't need you

hahaha, I like this. I like the imagery your words have painted of a love that turns out to be anything but the next best thing. In fact the true colors come through and you soon find that what was on the outside was not on the inside. This is well expressed and gives the reader a clear view of the theme you are portraying of unevenly yoked love. Well done.
